Complete genome sequence and lifestyle of black-pigmented <it>Corynebacterium aurimucosum </it>ATCC 700975 (formerly <it>C. nigricans </it>CN-1) isolated from a vaginal swab of a w... by Gartemann Karl-Heinz, Blom Jochen, Bekel Thomas, Arnold Walter, Viehoever Prisca, Tilker Alexandra, Szczepanowski Rafael, Schneiker-Bekel Susanne, Schneider Jessica, Götker Susanne, Trost Eva, Linke Burkhard, Goesmann Alexander, Pühler Alfred, Shukla Sanjay K, Tauch Andreas

“…</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>The data obtained by the genome project suggest that <it>C. aurimucosum </it>could be both a resident of the human gut and possibly a pathogen in the female genital tract causing complications during pregnancy. Since hitherto all black-pigmented <it>C. aurimucosum </it>strains have been recovered from female genital source, biosynthesis of the pigment is apparently required for colonization by protecting the bacterial cells against the high hydrogen peroxide concentration in the vaginal environment. …”
